What is this, there is a new podcast out.
OMGWOWHI and welcome to another episode of the famous 7 Bit Arcade. In this board game special, we recruit the help of board game connoiseur Christopher Boakes who shares his wry view on how video game could be turned into fully fledged board games. We wonder how the moderator on xbox live gets away with banning people, Stevie rants again and among other things, this podcast see’s the return of Eden who ignites proceedings with his dry banter and almost chaos inducing comments. All the usual features are in the bag as is the now famous ramble time, which includes Australia, Motion Control, Banning, Milo, Wrestling, Mass Effect 2, and more.
To celebrate that we have passed 1000 subscribers to the podcast, we are giving away Heavy Rain on the PS3. To take part, join the Facebook group, or follow us on Twitter and wait for further instructions. ;P

Good Tuesday to you all, it just happens to be the day that the 7 Bit Arcade podcast has decided to yet again rear its ugly, but somewhat quite good looking head. This time there is more to listen to as we talk and investigate everything and anything to do with games. This weeks episode includes all of this fine stuff:
It’s Stevie’s Birthday on this rather special 7BitArcade podcast as he reaches the fine age of 12 years old (according to some sources).
Birthday Shenanigans include messages from The Newb Review, Pink & Deadly, Gamer Dork and the Frugal massive. Eden is assaulted numerous times for straying past his line but is also congratulated for buying his first bit of virtual real estate.
Subjects include Dragon Age, Pie Catapults, Demon Souls, Susan Boyle Cannons, Blood Bowl, Balloons, Lego Rock Band, Shallow Hal, Brutal Legend, XBox Woes, Dead Space, Ass Creed 2, Karate Monkey, Game Demakes, Beneath a Steel Sky Remastered, Virtual Space Stations, Shatter, New Years Resolutions, Army of Two, Unthinkable Sequels, Modern Warfare 2, Dark Void and the Vancouver Olympic Games.
Yes, that is a lot of subjects. What you gonna do? Wanna fight about it?

On the 12th day of Christmas Santa said to me, make a podcast consisting of three.
So that is what we did.
The Multi Award winning sequel to 7 Bit Arcades pilot podcast is full of so much more entertainment, one could not shake a stick at it even if one did have a stick to shake at it.
In this weeks episode expect Rap Offs, Forza 3, Terrorism, Red Rings, Modern Warfare 2 mixed with Animal Hospital and features on the newest games including Stevie getting his teeth into Dragon Age and further anarchic banter.
Angela is away this week so the boys decide to create a virtual Angela to help fill in those gaps where men are not being testosterone fueled. Also, for the first time ever, they decide to stream the podcast live on justin.tv for everyone to see.
Games Mentioned:
- Crackdown 2
- Quantum Theory
- Forza 3
- Dragon Age
- WWE 2010
and more….

After a long debate over which was best, Audacity or Garage Band, we stuck Episode 1 in the can! Well I should say dragged into the can, kicking and screaming by its pig tails. Yes, not only can you read our nonsense, but soon you will be able to hear it. I would love to tell you how great it is, but we are a tad bias due to the size of our egos (some would say, almost as large as our collective e-penis). Anywho! To the editing suite for round 2 of audio delight. So get ready, because soon… that’s right son, soon, you will be able to hear what can only be described angels podcasting.
Oh, by the way, Garage Band won, we are such Mac fanboys (and fangirl).

Yes, We Do Love Music
This was just inevitable. The growth of Spotify can only be compared to China in terms of rapid growth and development so it has come as no surprise that the Swedish Streamers are planning on bringing the service to all consoles.
Quote Below from Bazy-Z
“We’ve been working on it for some time now and we can’t wait to reveal it to you guys!”
Wow thanks Roberta!
So what do you all think about Spotify coming to the consoles? Will it only be available for premium or will us paupers be able to use it too.

This is the first post of the brand spanking new digital excursion known as 7 Bit Arcade. Four bastard sons of the “New Media” age (well, technically one is a daughter) who like to bang on about video games, are bringing you these loving abominations known to the masses as a blog and a podcast. Tired of the bored look on co-workers faces, we have decided to focus our rantings and letters of love to a much more cretinous worthy and vindictive appreciative audience, yes, you, the luck internets.
So rejoice, for we have cometh and our bounty will be plentiful.
